Osiris St. Brown to Stanford: Cardinal Land 4-Star WR Prospect
Stanford secured the commitment of 4-star wide receiver Osiris St. Brown on Friday, after the wide receiver announced his decision on Twitter:
The wideout from Mater Dei High School in Anaheim is the No. 16 recruit from California, the No. 20 prospect at his position in the country and the No. 147 recruit overall, per 247Sports' composite rankings.
His older brother, Equanimeous St. Brown, plays for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, while his younger brother, Amon-Ra St. Brown, is already attracting attention from colleges. And yes, those names were chosen for specific reasons, as St. Brown told Damon Sayles of Bleacher Report in October.
"Osiris Adrian Amon-Ra J. St. Brown," he pronounced his full name, per Sayles. "Osiris is the [Egyptian] god of the underworld, and my dad believes in power in names and numbers. He named all of us with a meaning."
St. Brown comes from an athletic background. Along with his talented brothers, his father, John Brown, was a two-time Mr. Universe and three-time Mr. World champion in bodybuilding, per Sayles.
He comes from a cultured background, too, speaking three languages (English, German and French), appreciating fine cars and making art. Sayles described him as "a Renaissance man."
On the field, the 6'1", 178-pound wideout is just as impressive. Scout.com's Greg Biggins offered the following scouting report:
"St. Brown is a smooth receiver with great hands and very good body control. He runs very good routes, catches everything away from his body and shows the ability to run after the catch. He's a smart football player who knows how to get open, when to break off a route and when to settle in to a zone. He does a nice job catching the ball at it's highest point and is very good in jump ball situations. He needs to continue to get stronger and work on his top end speed but he has all the tools to be an impact college receiver.
"
Stanford has brought aboard a polished, dedicated wideout who has room to grow into a special player. Osiris may reference the Egyptian god of the underworld, but the Cardinal would settle for St. Brown being the king of campus in his time with the school.
